    What do you mean, the short-term thing?
    They say people who smoke pot have a short-term memory. Maybe that’s good, you know?

    Because [otherwise] you start remembering a lot of negative things that you’re not supposed to remember. And the next thing you know, you’re back drinking whiskey.
    So weed helps you forget about stuff you don’t wanna think about.
    Yeah. What’s more important is, there’s nothing I can do about what happened a while ago. Nothing I can do about what’s going to happen in a minute. Right now? I can try to pretty much control everything.
    Are there times you don’t remember stuff that you wish you had remembered because you were high?
    Oh, probably. But I forgot it.

    ....if you were a curator in Manchester and you get all this material....HOW DO YOU NOT GO THROUGH IT ALL right there, right on the spot, as soon as you get it?!!? It'd be like you, Esau, getting a box of Bob Dylan's personal effects and you just chucking it all in a closet, unopened.
